Academic Brochure 2018-19

“Maritime sector has a vital role in India’s progress & Government is strengthening

the sector through innovative initiatives.”

Shri Narendra Modi

Hon’ble Prime Minister of India “Shipping is just not ferrying of goods and passengers. It is all about the growth

of the nation as it promotes trade.”

Shri Nitin Gadkari

Hon’ble Minister of Shipping,

Road Transport & Highways

Vice Chancellor’s Message

India with a glorious past of its Maritime prowess is again poised to scale up its

presence in the global arena. Due to colonial past and political reasons our share in

the global GDP has fallen from about 25% few centuries ago to about 3% now. While

redeeming its rightful position in trade and commerce in the next few decades, our

GDP is expected to grow in the order of 10% annually. Such rapid expansion of a

large economy is bound to generate enormous opportunities for the people who are

equipped with right kind of knowledge and skill set.

This opens up prospects for young minds of India - like never before in the recent

past - in myriad fields related to anything maritime. Be it a Captain, Engineer, Ship

Builder, Designer, Port Manager, Logistics Expert - an ocean of opportunity is

beckoning the students who are capable and worthy.

If hard work and adventure doesn’t scare you, you are the material we are looking

for. IMU transforms raw energy and minds of young students into the professionals

fit for challenges posed by oceans. IMU offers under-graduation, post-graduation and

doctoral studies in various maritime fields through its four schools spread over six

campuses across India. The courses offered are unique and tailor made to suit the

industry needs. This fact is corroborated by our enviable placement record of 70%

which you will agree to be among the best in the country.

I take great pleasure in presenting this Academic Brochure to help you converge on

your requirement and a fascinating career in Indian as well as International Maritime

Sector.

1. Introduction

The Indian Maritime University (IMU) was established on 14th

November 2008 as

a teaching-cum-affiliating university under the aegis of the Ministry of Shipping,

Government of India, with Chennai as headquarters. It was set up to promote

maritime studies, training, research and extension with focus on emerging areas

like oceanography, maritime history, maritime laws, maritime security, search and

rescue, transportation of dangerous cargo, environmental studies and other related

fields, and to achieve excellence in these areas.

There were 7 renowned legacy teaching-cum-research institutes under the Ministry

of Shipping, and these were subsumed under the Indian Maritime University in

School of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering

This offers two PG programmes: M.Tech in Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering.

M.Tech in Dredging and Harbour Engineering.

The programmes in Naval Architecture & Ocean Engineering and Dredging and

Harbour Engineering are aimed at graduate engineers who wish to make a career

in the area of Ocean Engineering, Ship Design and Production, in the Allied

Industries like Dredging, Port and Harbour Engineering industries. There is, at

present, tremendous growth in Indian Shipbuilding and offshore industry. Also,
